2. How does the jelly turn out clear when you have ground red peppers in it?

5. The red pepper jelly calls for 5 1/2 cups of sugar, that seems like a lot, making it really sweet, could one cut back on the sugar

1. Everyone loves this recipe and it is so easy to make! We don't have bottles of liquid pectin but I used one of the packages (here it comes 2 to a box - but I just used one for the recipe and it turned out great).

2. This was awesome! The first time I made it I found that it was a little runny so I added another package of the liquid pectin and it turned out much better!! I use it as a sauce for pork chops and a dip for chicken figers. It goes great with cream cheese and crackers!! Thanks for posting. This is my new naughty, night time snack:)

3. Just finished making this and it looks fantastic! I put in 2 packets of Certo as one did not seem enough; now it is setting up nicely. Can't wait to taste it. Just a word of warning. Once Certo is added it is very important to keep stirring or it will boil all over the stove.

4. This recipe is delicious. It calls for bottle pectin, I used one pouch certo liquid pectin. As suggested, I also added 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, you could use more. This has become my favorite for pepper jelly and it's so easy. For some reason, I got more jars than the recipe called for. A bonus.

5. This was very good, I made it to use in a baked brie and it was excellent. Great with cheese and on crackers. I only used 5 cups on sugar and next time I make it I'll try it with a little less. The sweet flavor of the peppers is plenty enough. Very very good. Make sure you do this in a pretty large pot though, I used my 6 quart pot and it wasn't enough when I boiled it the second time!

1. I love pepper jelly and this recipe is wonderful; although I did adjust it just a bit. I used apple cider vinegar instead of regular vinegar and I used jalapenos instead of bell peppers. To grind them I placed them in a blender--cut off the stems but kept the seeds--then followed the recipe. It gives a WONDERFUL mild spice with the sweet and everyone I've given a jar to LOVES it!!
